This book covered so many themes and did it very well. I went in with relatively high expectations and I was not disappointed.

I did not think I would like this book but I decided to give it a chance. I was pleasantly surprised and I really enjoyed this book. I will be recommending this book to my library patrons and friends.

Thank you to NetGalley and Freeform for the opportunity to read and review the e-arc copy of Witches of Ash and Ruin. #NetGalley #WitchesofAshandRuin
A 17-year old young woman going through physical and emotional changes in her life. The story has wonderfully flushed out characters that are realistic even with the fantasy background. The mythology and magic are blended in such a way that you forget they aren't real. Wizards, witches, teen issues, and family are interwoven together in the backdrop of contemporary Ireland. Young adults will flock to this title. The first in a trilogy.
Read alikes for this would be: The Hazelwood; V. E. Schwab.

" mesmerizing story of dark magic and brutal mythology set against a backdrop of contemporary Ireland that's impossible to put down."

Loved every single page of this book. Dark, plot twists, realistic characters, demons, witches and mythology-oh my!

This book was received as an ARC from Disney Book Group - Freeform in exchange for an honest review. Opinions and thoughts expressed in this review are completely my own.

My favorite books of all time are all about witches and gods and then throw in the drama of a seventeen year old girl struggling with Obsessive compulsive disorder and being accused of her bisexuality escaping from reality and I was hooked. The bravery and fight Dayna took in her involvement with the dark magic of witches and gods, you can't help but to get addicted. I know our teen book club will love this book.

We will consider adding this title to our YA collection at our library. This is why we give this book 5 stars.
